snack bar

Casual food stand

A snack bar is a counter or small establishment serving light, quick food—sandwiches, chips, candy, drinks.

Found in airports, movie theaters, pools, and other venues where people want refreshment without a full meal: We grabbed nachos at the snack bar during halftime.
